Poll: Do you think these homes should have heritage protection?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

The row of 1950s flat-roofed wooden duplexes in Pinfold Ave are gems of Kiwi historic house design needing protection, say the planning boffins.

But some of those who live in them just want a house that’s less ‘worn’ - and their state landlord agrees, saying removing their protection will help build more homes.

Reckless dirt bike riders on the streets of Hamilton have prompted police to issue a public safety warning and an appeal for witnesses.

They have observed a growing number of incidents involving dirt bikes being ridden in an unsafe and dangerous manner around the city, said Senior Sergeant Scott McKenzie, Hamilton area manager for youth and community.
